Stop the Large Aircraft Security Program

Under the Large Aircraft Security Program, the US Government will have to search your plane before every flight. The TSA will know how often you fly, where you fly, and who goes with you. And yes you have to pay for it. $50 a flight.

PEABODY, Mass. (AP) — The federal Transportation Security Administration is defending its decision to confiscate a frosted cupcake from a Massachusetts woman flying from Las Vegas.

The TSA says in a blog comment posted Monday the cupcake was packed in a jar filled with icing, which is considered a gel under a policy designed to secure travelers from terrorists seeking to evade detection by using explosives made of plastics, liquids or gels.

Peabody (PEE’-buh-dee) resident Rebecca Hains was barred from taking her cupcake onto a plane last month when a TSA agent said icing in the jar exceeded amounts of gels allowed in carry-on luggage. Hains has called that “terrible logic.”

The TSA says travelers can take cakes, pies and cupcakes through security checkpoints but should expect they might get additional screening.

These people have never done anything wrong; feeling up children, breaking open colostomy bags, squeezing my Flight Attendant’s breasts — all in the name of freedom.

So, after LASP gets out there, what will that do to catering on private flights? What about the $100 hamburger? Flying to wherever to get whatever and bring it home (lobster up north, onions in Vidalia, GA, barbeque from Pierce’s in Virginia, pick your favorite)?

Think about how much freedom you’ve already lost and how much you are about to loose….

What’s The Problem?

If you happen to own an aircraft over 12,500 lbs the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) under the Large Aircraft Security Program will seek to enhance "the security of general aviation by expanding the scope of current requirements and by adding new requirements for certain large aircraft (over 12,500 lbs) operators and airports serving those aircraft."

If passed the TSA will require you, the pilot, or any other pilot's you have that fly your personal aircraft have a five year background check with finger prints done on them. And for the good news: you have to pay for it.
